Life as a Mom, A Homesteader, A Blogger and A Wife.

This summer we have been sticking to our homeschool curriculum. We're doing one theme each week and learning some skills as well. The girls have been working on writing their names, identifying letters and early spelling, basic math skills, fine motor tasks, bible studies and plenty of exercise. They love the physical piece so much we have added stretching and exercise (push ups, lunges, squats, sit ups, etc.) each morning. It's been great for all three of us.

We are participating in a reading club through our library. We've done tons of lessons, activities and "field trips". It's been a lot of fun. I thought the girls might get bored of it by this point but they are still going strong.

Our weekly themes have spanned from the beach, music, birthdays and farming and gardening. This week we start our unit on butterflies. Our caterpillars have arrived and we are ready to learn!

We're also spending a couple of hours at the pool each day. Not only do they LOVE swimming but we also get to work on gross motor and social skills.

About this blog

Over 8 years we have struggled through 3 IUI's, 6 rounds of IVF, several RE's, hundreds of appointments and the loss of three little angels. Now we find ourselves the proud parents of two perfect little girls and a wonderful little boy!!

Both of our girls struggle with some disabilities but that won't keep us down. Each day has it's own brand of insanity but we love it. Most days I am more monkey wrangler than mother but I do the best I can. Todays goal - getting to tomorrow.
